Considers monitoring of metabolic parameters, including glucose, HbA1c, lipids, blood pressure, body weight, and renal function, when appropriate, as well as quality of life as essential to assess the need for changes in therapy and to ensure successful outcomes. Ongoing nutrition self-management education and care need to be available for individuals with diabetes.
